Comments about Diamond Strike-a-Fire Matches:
A bit on the bulky side, but you can take only what you need. They burn for several minutes and work great at getting even wet kindling going. Great in winter too in low temps. I keep two in my pack for wet, cold, or windy conditions where a standard match just isn't enough. Have had one box last me a very long time though they get hard to separate and break in half as they get older.

Comments about Diamond Strike-a-Fire Matches:
Used these in a deep canyon with a river, it was cold everything was wet, even the fallen pine needles wouldn't light. threw one of these in with the normal kindling. Fire.
Seriously tho, it was damp, misty, wet. even with the fire going the wood was dripping moisture, these things work.
I don't take a whole box when im out, I pu a couple in a ziplock, but they are ALWAYS there.
10 essentials.

These are a permanent part of my camp kit. Have started fires in storms with these. I always have 4 or 5 boxes when camping. Priceless assistance on a cold, damp day.

The Strike-A-Fire Matches work great, the only done side is that it takes some getting used to get them started. With a little practice, this work great for any adventure.

it would be a sin to go on any backpacking or camping trip without these. i have started fires with these sticks in temperatures below 15 degrees with snow on the ground . great way to get your fire going and very easy to use and very reliable. dont leave home without them!!

This is an awesome idea, to create a fire starting product such as this. Bring these along, just-in-case your stranded and the wood around you is too wet to start around you. This has a fire starter along with the kindling. Remember to be extremely cautious while using these outdoors.
